this young Zeltron was part of the detachment sent to the Forest Moon of Endor to meet with the leaders of the Alliance, most especially Leia Organa, in the wake of the Battle of Endor. Admiral Ackbar then placed the four Zeltrons in charge of protecting Leia, in order to simplify a delicate situation. It was Jahn who daringly knocked Knife unconscious on Kabray station, after the Nagai and his companions had captured Leia and the Zeltrons.

see Jaig'alaar (SWI84)

Jai'galaar
most often referred to simply as Jag, this clone commander was officially designated CT-55/11-9009, making him part of the noted CT-5 batch of clones. Jag proved early in his career that he was an exceptional pilot, but he was flash-trained as a leader. Jag first saw action during the Battle of Geonosis, where he served as a commander of the 127th Gunship Wing. Although he was later demoted to Captain for his failure during the Retreat at Katraasii, Jag was among the pilots chosen by Jedi Master Plo Koon to serve as a test pilot on the new ARC-170 fighter. Jag remained attached to Plo Koon's forces, and was the Jedi Master's wingman during the struggle for control of Cato Neimoidia. This put him in perfect position when the command to execute Order 66 was issued. Captain Jag simply placed his fighter behind Plo Koon's and fired on the Jedi fight, causing it to crash into the side of a building and explode. (SWI84)

Jaina's Light
this was the false identity used by Han Solo to smuggle three CR-90 corvettes out of Imperial space, for sale to the Alliance, a few years before the Battle of Yavin. Claiming it had been named for his mother, Han told Captain Llnewe of the customs vehicle Vigilant that he was in the employ of some farmers from Nadiem who were in need of supplies. The farmers, Han claimed, had help fund the purchase of the Jaina's Light. Each time the Imperial stopped him, Han claimed to be travelling to Nadiem to deliver supplies to the farmers. However, it took three meetings for Captain Llnewe to realize that he never intercepted the Jaina's Light during its return from the planet Nadiem. By that time, Han and Chewbacca had earned a tidy sum for delivering the three - virtually identical - corvettes to Mako Spince for sale to the Alliance. (T2)

Jakaitis
this man was a maintenance supervisor working at the Bakuran Senate Complex during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (FH2)

Jakan
this Yuuzhan Vong high priest was an advisor to Supreme Overlord Shimrra, and the father of the priestess Elan, during the aliens' invasion of the galaxy some twenty-five years after the Battle of Endor. He led the priest caste of Yuuzhan Vong during their invasion of the galaxy, and represented the priests on the Great Council. He eventually became the High Priest of the Yuuzhan Vong, after the capture and terraforming of Coruscant into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar. As befitting his rank and caste, Jakan often wore clothing of a deep red color, to distinguish himself from other priests. When the combined forces of the Galactic Alliance made a final push to recapture the planet Coruscant, Jakan remained at Shimrra's side, until the ground forces of the Alliance reached the Citadel and began moving on the Well of the World Brain. Along with High Prefect Drathul and Qelah Kwaad, Jakan descended from the Citadel and traveled to the Well to anoint the Jedi who were captured there. Among those captured were Harrar, Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo, and Jakan agreed they would make excellent sacrifices. His plans were cut short when Nom Anor, leading Mara Jade Skywalker and a band of Shamed Ones, flooded the chamber and confronted the warriors arrayed before them. Drathul demanded that the captives be executed, but his commander instead turned his forces against Drathul's guards. In a flash, Harrar was free, and he rendered Jakan unconscious with a single blow to the head. Jakan's life was spared, however, and he was detained for later questioning. After the deaths of Shimrra and Onimi - who proved to be the true Supreme Overlord - Jakan and the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong agreed to surrender to the Galactic Alliance. In accordance with the advice of Jedi master Luke Skywalker, the Galactic Alliance allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to travel to Zonama Sekot to re-establish their civilization. The planetary consciousness Sekot welcomed them with open arms, then fled into the Unknown Regions to allow its new inhabitants to evolve in peace. (HT, DW, FH3, UF)

Her father was a worker in the tibanna gas refinery, and her mother worked at the Holiday Towers restaurant. When Darth Vader first arrived at the outpost, she didn't know about it. However, when Lando Calrissian ordered the evacuation of the colony, she was cut off from her parents. Allie and a group of friends traversed the city's Ugnaught tunnels, passing into the carbon-freezing chamber just as Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader were battling with their lightsabers. She kept going, but felt some bond with Luke that she couldn't explain. When she emerged from the tunnels with her friends, they were found by Bent Gavler and whisked off the outpost in a crowded transport ship. She sensed that Luke was all right as they flew away from Cloud City. (MTS, GG3)

this was a common name among the Zeltron people. (UANT)

Jakka
this plant was known for tiny seeds. (DMSH)

Jakobeast
native to several arctic worlds in the Outer Rim Territories, the jakobeast was a Force-sensitive herd creature. Because of their connection to the Force, they were capable of defending themselves in ways that other herdbeasts could not. For this reason, many jakobeasts were seeded on planets far from their homeworld, by colonists who needed to maintain a supply of beasts for meat, fur, milk, and other necessities. The average jakobeast was similar in size to a bantha, with two segmented horns sprouting from their skulls and two tusks jutting from their lower jaw. The tusks were used to dig up snow and ice to reach the vegetation beneath it. The fur of the jakobeast was a light gray color, striped with white to help it blend into its native tundra environment. The horns of the jakobeast, however, were its most distinguishing feature. The horns were used by the jakobeast to channel the energy of the Force, and the energy they gather can often been seen arcing between the horns like electricity. While the energy itself is harmless, the jakobeast uses it to generate a form of Force push to defend itself from predators. (PJSB)

Jakrab

Jalan
this man was a member of the Nebula Front team, led by Captain Cohl, serving aboard the Hawk-Bat as a sensor operator, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. After the destruction of the Revenue, Cohl and his crew tried to sneak onto Dorvalla and return to their makeshift base. Their shuttle was intercepted by the forces of the Dorvalla Space Corps and shot down. Jalan was severely injured in the crash, and was unable to make it to the base. He sacrificed himself, destroying what was left of the shuttle by detonating after being caught Dorvallan ground forces, in order to allow Cohl, Rella, and Boiny reach the base. (COD)

The Syndicate was one of the only House-sponsored gangs to survive the Imperial occupation of Tapani Sector. The Mecetti leaders ordered the Syndicate's leader, Boss Tosk, to shut down operations in an effort to win favor with Emperor Palpatine. Tosk knew better than to cross Mecetti, and agreed to put a halt to its actions.

this Sullustan was once employed as a pilot by Teroenza. He became ill from transporting spice from Ylesia, which was later diagnosed as an allergy, and was temporarily replaced by a young Han Solo. He helped the young man understand ways to navigate the storms that ravage the planet. Their friendship grew quickly, and eventually Jalus assisted Han in escaping from Ylesia. It was Nebl who flew between the Talisman and the Helot's Shackle, breaking the tractor beam contact and allowing both himself and Han to escape. Nebl fled into hyperspace with the Ylesian Dream and disappeared. He joined the Alliance, and renamed the Ylesian Dream to Dream of Freedom. He joined Bria Tharen and the group which assaulted Ylesia to destroy the Besadii businesses there. He piloted the Dream of Freedom in through the atmosphere and led the way for many Alliance ships to reach the ground. Unfortunately, the Dream of Freedom was the first ship targetted by the turbolaser protecting the planet. The first shots it fired in defense of the colonies there struck the Dream of Freedom and destroyed it, killing Nebl in the explosion. (TPS, RD)

Jam, Christoph
this eccentric man was a native of the planet Alderaan, where he owned and operated Descorp. Unknown to most other beings, Jam also maintained one of the most extensive spy networks on the planet. Much of the information he gathered was on the criminal aspects of Alderaan's society, working diligently to avenge injustices and attacks on the upstanding citizens of the planet. Through his teams of Rectifiers, Jam made sure that each situation that was brought to his attention was resolved. Much of the funding for the Rectifiers came from Descorp's profits. (CCW)

Jamer, Dren
an Imperial Navy Captain serving on the Dominant under Pter Thanas, Dren Jamer was known for a less than stellar career at the Imperial Academy and as an officer. However, both parts of his life were punctuated by unusually bright moments. His commanding officer aboard the Star Destroyer Stormclaw commended his attention to detail and promoted him to the bridge crew. However, his otherwise average performance relegated him to duty at Bakura, where he served as Thanas' second in command. Thanas recognized Jamer's aptitude for science and exploration, and assigned him the duty of mapping the Bakura System. After the Battle of Bakura, Jamer continued to denounce the Alliance and left Thanas' crew to remain with the Imperial forces. (TB, TBSB)

Jameson
this man convinced his commanding officer, Lajar Weqill, to go on a safari to Relkass. The plan was to kill a few draagax for the bounty on their pelts.

Jamillia
this woman served as the Queen of Naboo, some ten years after the Battle of Naboo. A native of the southeastern regions of Naboo, Jamillia was elected to serve when Padme' Amidala left the office after her two terms were completed. It was Jamillia who requested that Padme' remain in the political life, to serve as Naboo's Senator to the Old Republic's Galactic Senate. Queen Jamillia opened up many of Naboo's spaceports and rural areas to refugees who were fleeing the Separatist crisis on their homeworlds, shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars. (OWS, HNN5, SWDB)

Jaminere
this planet served as the capital world of the Allied Tion sector. As the former center of the Jaminere Marches, Jaminere was part of Xim the Despot's empire in the early years of galactic history, although it was never part of the Tion Hegemony. (ML, GORW)

He was placed under the command of Admiral Traest Kre'fey, and commanded the ground troops which were dispatched to Ylesia to capture the leaders of the Peace Brigade, shortly after the Second Battle of Coruscant. (CCG3, Y)

Jammer
this manta-like predator was native to the jungles of Kidron. They glided through the air by filling special sacs with air and then using their win-like fins to navigate the breezes. They were named jammers by the Orfites because jammers exude a cloud of foul-smelling stench that extended five meters around their body. This intense odor effectively jammed the Orfite's olfactory senses. The average jammer grew to lengths reaching three meters, with a wingspan of three meters or more. (PG3)

Jammer Pack
any form of technology used to prevent unwanted listeners from overhearing a conversation. The original technology was less than successful, and would have been scrapped if the devices hadn't been discovered by various intelligence agencies. It was found that a high-powered jammer pack could drown out all communications in a specific area. This allowed operatives to enter a location while their targets were unable to communicate with each other. (TTSB)

Jamoh Hogra
this Zabrak mercenary once participated in a deep-space ambush of a ship that turned out to be a Sith Dreadnaught, many thousands of years before the Galactic Civil War. Although he survived the ambush, Jamoh feared that the Sith would eventually hunt him down and kill him, so he invested a good deal of credits in protective armor and sensors. Ironically, he was killed while taking a bath. His armor was stolen, and became the stuff of legends for many centuries after his death. (KOTOR, KOTOR2)

Jamos, Hen
this merchant and spacer plied the spacelanes of Trax Sector during the Galactic Civil War.

However, Mika's reflexes kept him out of reach, and he delivered a blow which crippled Jan's knee. Andos managed to knock out Mika, and Jan attempted to kill him with a S'krrr energy pike.

Jandal
this city is located on the planet Kamori. (SWJ5)

Jandarra
this green and purple tubular vegetable is grown on the planet Jubilar. It grows in the deserts there, usually only after one of the infrequent rain storms. A delicacy favored by the wealthy throughout the galaxy, jandarra plants take almost two years to cultivate, due to the rarity of rain on the Jubilar desert. The natives of Jubilar were forced to smuggle the vegetable off their planet to nearby Shalam for processing, because nearby Shalamites placed a 100% tariff on it in order to help fill their own coffers. (TBH)

Jandi, Aellyn
this young woman married Moff Riit Jandi, and lived on Elshandruu Pica. She was a childhood friend and love of Sair Yonka from their time on Commenor, who managed to convince Kina Margath to cover up their affair. Kina agreed, and spread rumors that Yonka was romancing herself, instead of coming to Elshandruu Pica to meet with Aellyn. For her own part, Aellyn used her position as the Moff's wife to obtain special concessions for Margath's on Elshandruu Pica, and persuaded Yonka to bring exotic liquors and alcohols from the worlds he visted for Kina. (BW)

After giving up the Spaceman's Rest, Jandler began working for Duttes Mer as a constable and Captain of the Guard. When Mer and Rokur Gepta brought Lando Calrissian to Rafa IV, Jandler was placed in charge of making Lando couldn't back out of their deal to locate the Mindharp. Jandler was ordered to follow Lando's every move, and to eliminate Calrissian if necessary. The orders from Mer finally angered Jandler enough that he willingly let Lando place his team on a drifting crusier, whose destination was Rafa XI. This gave Lando enough time to find the Mindharp without intervention and figure out its true purpose. After Lando left the Rafa System, Jandler was promoted to serve as the Chief Supervisor of the remaining life-crystal orchards, reporting directly to Sris Lehhett. (LCM, GMR5)

Jandoon
this planet was the primary world in the Jandoon System, which was located in the Corva Sector. The inhabitants of the planet died out centuries ago, although the reasons for their disappearance were never uncovered. It was rumored that the spirits of the dead roamed the system, and these rumors tended to keep most travellers out of the system. Another rumor stated that the planet's inhabitants were technologically advanced, and that fantastic machines and tools could be found deep within the planet. The average day on Jandoon lasted 25 standard hours, and that its year encompassed 273 local days. Note that the Star Wars: Customizable Card Game claims that Jandoon is the homeworld of the Brizzit race. (SWJ6, CCG)

Jandovar, Maxa

Janelle Serap
this female Seikoshan was one of the most powerful crimelords on the planet Seikoska, during the early years of the New Republic. She tried to get her hands on the droid R1-T4, which had been shipped to her by Simms Jonndril, but the smugglers who transported it balked on their agreement and turned the droid over to Kade Darven and the New Republic. (POC)

Jangelle
this warm world is located in the Kathol Outback. It's surface is covered with sandy lowlands broken by a complex network of rivers, streams, and deltas. Large, deep bodies of water are rare on Jangelle. The planet was settled by a group of refugees who fled the Empire when it invaded Kathol Sector, and they maintained contact with the rest of the sector - and Moff Sarne's activities - during supply runs to Gandle Ott and Pembric II. The colonies on Jangelle are low-tech settlements, although there are two ion cannons and a small navy protecting them. The leadership of Jangelle formed a mutual defense pact with the planets of the Kathol Republic in order to maintain their world's freedom. (KO)

Jangler
a musical instrument often used in marching bands. (CPL)

Jango Fett Arena
this open-air arena was located in the city of Mos Eisley, on the planet Tatooine. During the height of the New Order, all manner of combat events were held to entertain patrons. The arnea was named in honor of Jango Fett, who died in the Geonosis gladiator arenas many years earlier. (IWST)

Jangoed
this slang term became part of the lingo of the galaxy's bounty hunters in the wake of the Battle of Geonosis, where Jango Fett was defeated in combat by Jedi Master Mace Windu. When Asajj Ventress issued bounties for the deaths of 82 members of the Jedi Order, the more experienced hunters advised their greener brethren to take care when hunting a Jedi. Otherwise, they risked getting Jangoed - dying in combat when their heads were severed from their bodies with a lightsaber. (SWI73)

Jangotat
this was the second nickname adopted by clone trooper A-98, who was also known as Nate. The name meant "Jango's brother" in Mandalorian, a name that Nate felt gave him a closer tie to Jango Fett, who served as the template for the clone troopers. He took the new name after spending a great deal of time with Sheeka Tull, who had once been romantically linked to Jango. Shortly after taking on the new name, Jangotat was badly injured when the Desert Wind terrorist based was infiltrated by a group of plastidroids and JK-series combat droids. Jangotat was rescued by Sheeka Tull, who took him to her village to recouperate under the ministrations of Brother Nicos Fate and several other Cestian healers. It was during his recovery that Jangotat felt most vulnerable, and his presence at the settlement only placed Sheeka and her family in danger. Sheeka revealed that she hated what he represented, the Clone Wars and the way it was destroying the galaxy. As for Jangotat himself, she only felt pity. In his absence, Jangotat's fellow ARC troopers wondered if he had been captured, or had broken the unwritten Code among troopers. It was while he was recouperating that Jangotat was given an opportunity to see first-hand the dashta eels, when Sheeka took him to their secret cave. The sight of the blind eels, glowing with happiness and friendship, made his cry for the first time in his life. It was then that he realized that, despite the fact that the clone troopers were produced from the same genetic template, they were all unique in their own ways. Upon returning to his comrades and the Jedi Masters, Jangotat spent all of his free time discussing Jedi combat techniques with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Kit Fisto, soaking up every scrap of information. In this way, Jangotat came to understand how to anticipate his opponent's next move, and was able to defeat his fellow ARC troopers in training battles that were designed to end in a draw. As the situation on Ord Cestus unraveled, Jangotat discovered the secret location of the Five Families' hidden bunker. He launched a desparate mission to root them out, using information from Thak Val Zsing to guide his actions. Once Thak Val Zsing gained him entrance to the compound, Jangotat called to the Nexu to override the orders for bombardment. Rather than firing on the Clandes Industrial complex, Jangotat ordered the Nexu to fire on his own location, inside the compound. Only the fact that an ARC trooper ordered the strike right on top of his own location made Admiral Baraka alter the targetting. Baraka's military training ran its course, and the Nexu fired on the bunker. Along with most of the members of the Five Families, Jangotat was killed in the explosions. His last will and testament remained behind, and provided clues to the truths behind Ord Cestus. (TCD)

Jannik the White
